A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver parked his truck near Aurora Health Center and noticed something odd in the backseat—a small wooden box wrapped in old newspaper. Curious, he took it inside, where no one seemed to notice its appearance. As he opened the box, out popped an adorable hamster wearing a tiny doctor’s hat. The whole place erupted into laughter—turns out someone had left their pet mascot there for a staff event. Moral of the story? Always check your vehicle before making rounds.
2. One afternoon, an elderly gentleman walked into Aurora Health Center and asked the receptionist, ‘Excuse me, can you tell me how long it takes for a kidney stone to pass naturally?’ The receptionist replied calmly, ‘It usually takes between one and five days.’ The man nodded thoughtfully and said, ‘Thank you very much!’ Then he turned around and left without ever mentioning why he’d been asking. Later that evening, a delivery driver arrived with some flowers for the receptionist, whispering, 'Just wanted to say thanks for your help today.' When asked why, he grinned sheepishly, 'I was just curious if my kidney stone would pass quickly too!' Everyone laughed, realizing the old gentleman had been checking on his own health.
3. One day, a delivery driver parked his truck near Aurora Health Center and found a mysterious package labeled only ‘For Dr. Smith’. Curious, he took it inside. Inside, he discovered an old-fashioned candy box filled with chocolates. Turns out, it was from Dr. Smith’s wife, who often sent him treats. The delivery driver grinned, thinking how lucky Dr. Smith was, then left, whistling a tune.
4. One night, a delivery driver parked his truck near Aurora Health Center and heard an unusual announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention patients and staff—please be advised that our emergency exit is now open for business hours.’ The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw no one else reacting. Curious, he walked towards the open door and found himself in a dimly lit hallway filled with old medical equipment and dusty posters. Just as he was about to leave, he heard a soft voice from behind him: 'Excuse me, are you lost?' Turned out it was just an elderly volunteer nurse who thought the clinic had extended its hours.
